Soap UI Assertions

In this post I am going to explain what assertion in soapui is and how we can apply script assertion.

Assertion 

Assertion functionality in SoapUI is used to validate the response of request received by the Test Steps at the time of execution. Usually assertion is to compare a part of message (or the entire message) to some expected value.
Assertion applied in SoapUI at response of request, if any assertion failed then test marked as failed. Failed test can be verify and find out the reason.


Assertion types in SoapUI

1.    Contains
2.    Not Contains
3.    XPath Match
4.    Xquery Match
5.    Scripts
6.    SLA
7.    JMS
8.    JDBC
9.    Security

Script Assertion
In SoapUI Groovy script is used for scripts assertion. Click on assertion option from your created test step.


Click on + icon, select scripts option from popup window and click Add button. Enter assertion name and click on OK button.
Suppose you are getting response in xml format as my test step response is in xml format.


 <responce>
    <status>OK</status>
    <data>2</data>
 </responce>

For above response I used below groovy scrip assertion for status node value


 import com.eviware.soapui.support.XmlHolder
 def holder = new XmlHolder( messageExchange.responseContentAsXml )

 assert holder["//status"] == "OK"
 assert holder["//data"] == "2"

SSO with SAML login scenario in JMeter

SAML(Security Assertion Markup Language) is increasingly being used to perform single sign-on(SSO) operations. As WikiPedia puts it, SAML is an XML-based open standard data format for exchanging authentication and authorization data between parties, in particular, between an identity provider and a service provider. With the rise in use of SAML in web applications, we may need to handle this in JMeter. This step-by-step tutorial shows SAML JMeter scenario to perform login operation. First request from JMeter is a GET request to fetch Login page. We need to fetch two values ‘SAMLRequest’ and ‘RelayState’ from the Login page response data. We can do this by using  Regular Expression Extractor . These two values need to be sent in POST request to service provider. Refer below image to see how to do this. We will get an HTML login page as a response to the request sent in 1st step. We need to fetch values of some hidden elements to pass it in the next request. We can do this b

We at times are required to convert excel files into csv to read as flat files and sometime require to convert a csv file into excel file to use excel features on the data.   Below function shows how to convert an csv file into excel file and vice versa.

Once the destination file is created, we can delete the source file as shown below.  In case of any issue in understanding the code, please add in comment section Call func_ConversionCSVExcel("E:\Test.csv", "E:\Test_converted.xls", "csvtoexcel") Public Function func_ConversionCSVExcel(strSrcFile, strDestFile, Conversion) on error resume next Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.application") set objExcelBook = objExcel.Workbooks.Open(strSrcFile) objExcel.application.visible=false objExcel.application.displayalerts=
